Czarface is Wu-Tang Clan's Inspectah Deck, 7L, and Esoteric

Czarface is the boundary-busting hip hop crew consisting of 7L, Esoteric, and Wu-Tang Clan’s Inspectah Deck. The group has announced an inventive book and record set release for Record Store Day. The project, titled First Weapon Drawn, is a beautifully conceived vinyl release packaged with a 24-page comic book in a gatefold jacket:

First Weapon Drawn serves as the musical accompaniment to the origin story of the character known as Czarface. Listen to two tracks here:
